I listened to Eve yester-day and noticed an interesting feature in "Damned If I Do": after the line "But each time you walk away," there's a diatonically ascending phrase in the electric piano part (G A Bb C D Eb), and because it's step-wise, there's a musical sense of this "walk[ing]."

"Damned If I Do"
I figured out a couple parts from "Damned If I Do" this afternoon. One of them was a guitar part from ~0:29 to ~0:37, which I don't think I'd even realized was there before. In any case, the first three notes are the same as the famous phrase from Strauss' Also Sprach Zarathustra (albeit adjusted for key).
Here's the guitar phrase (which I believe is played with harmonics and which I might have notated in the wrong octave):
The phrase from Also Sprach Zarathustra is C G C' in C major; this is G D G' in G minor.
